I believe many people know that OMEGA's classic series, Planet Ocean (ocean universe), but on this 1948 watch, whether high imitation or genuine, not many people know, then this authentic only sold 1948 only Planet Ocean Liquidmetal Special Edition in the end what kind of secret, and its corresponding replica and how, this article I will do a detailed explanation, if you Planet Ocean Liquidmeta 1948 whether genuine or replica are interested, or Authentic OMEGA Planet Ocean this series are interested, then this article will certainly help you.
First of all, or the old rules to explain to you some of the history of genuine Planet Ocean, and related information, Omega Planet Ocean's original model from the 1932 replica watches
"Marine" This is OMEGA's first dive watch, is the world's first Diving watches, was attached to the constellation series, interested friends can look at the Wikipedia link at the bottom,
However, we now see the Seamaster series (Seamaster) first appeared in 1948, after 67 years of light and shadow to today's design, constantly updated, helium exhaust valves, coaxial movement, silicon hairspring, etc. constantly Of the new technology to enrich the OMEGA's products, of course, including Seamaster.
Today we are evaluating the watch is a limited edition, OMEGA launched in 2009, the first use of Liquidmetal ® outer ring material as a watch, the world's limited 1948, the next few years, no longer No Liquidmetal as the outer ring material of the watch appeared, whether it is genuine or high imitation, have disappeared.
Can refer to the relevant literature:
Until the recent emergence of 232.90.46.21.03.001, swiss replica watches SA began mass production of Liquidmetal outer ring of the watch, Liquidmetal material before once again appeared in the public eye, and we see the high imitation is the originator Liquidmetal outer ring , That is, imitation of the OMEGA SA 1948.
First, the overall structure
The following is the table to use all the accessories, this watch case overall structure of the three structures, case, sealed back cover & soft iron magnet cover,
Second, the case
Case on the high imitation Planet Ocean (marine universe) some of the details, especially on the water, in the same series of AQUA TERRA also has a lot of expression, including its design of the tube, and the back cover of the waterproof ring deployment, etc. , Of course, the helium exhaust valve is still not done on the functional design, but its waterproof at least up to AQUA TERRA 150M level, its design can also be competent swimming, diving, and so a series of wading work.
But as to whether it can reach a depth of 600M, or temporarily unable to research, because after all ... we are a small team, temporarily can not afford to rent submarines. Here to give you popular science about waterproof errors, currently available on the market, the most advanced waterproof test equipment, can only simulate 50 meters under pressure, and this is already a great amount of pressure, and to Knowing at the replica watches
end of World War II in 1947, the most advanced submarine of that time was the maximum dive depth, also only 60 meters. Normal human can not dive alone to 30 meters below, on the genuine waterproof test is to model the watch, by renting deep-sea submarines, or customized high-energy pressure equipment, and so on to be tested, the limits of the watch out, Thus setting a waterproof depth, so some exaggerated waterproof depth of authentic watches, such as Rolex's SEA 3600M, and Seamaster's 1200M, are such conclusions, like Omega genuine Speedmaster series, only in 1972 Year Apollo program, the US astronauts had worn OMEGA watch on the moon, but does not mean that each a Speedmaster series have experienced NASA inspection, and boarded the moon. So the parameters of the water in the tangle is unnecessary.
Third, Liquidmetal bezel & mirror
Liquidmetal ® material is a special ceramic material jointly developed by Swatch and Omega, which is similar to liquid metal produced by Liquidmetal Technologies in California, USA. (It is interesting to know about Baidu.) It looks like ceramics, But the actual is a solid mixture of materials, of course, this material is not an exclusive license, so the replica of the material is and genuine is the same, Omega, after all, not the same as Apple to buy a local tyrant Liquidmetal in a field of global Right of use.
I personally feel that Liquidmetal® first appeared in the 2009 Omega 1948 Planet Ocean. The real reason for this is that it is not a material immaturity, or quality, but a patent and a trademark dispute.
Because it is the early OMEGA SA products, the use of double coating, both inside and outside are coated with a layer of anti-reflective coating you can look at the effect of light on the mirror, so that the details of texture, and genuine exactly the same.
Fourth, the back cover & soft iron anti-magnetic technology
In addition to the above mentioned Liquidmetal bezel is its unique highlights, the Planet Ocean 600M Liquidmetal 1948 Special Edition is the original Planet Ocean 600M series, the last of a compact Planet Ocean 600M, since then with the Omega history On the most beautiful OMEGA.Cal.8500 series movement, Omega no longer need to use a secret base to cover the original movement, and this is the original OMEGA last use of soft iron imitation magnetic technology watch , Since then the anti-magnetic technology is mainly concentrated in the gossamer, and the movement of the plywood on the treatment, such as silicon hairspring, and AT150M in the Omega Cal.8508 movement
Fifth, movement:
This watch is equipped with, the Swiss original ETA 2824-2 movement, on this movement related to the introduction of the forum in the management of the movement plate has a detailed explanation, here is not repeated, the forum Introduce the address
Six, literal & pointer & luminous
This watch is literally used in the original OMEGA in the past is very rare zirconia-based material for the glossy literal, this literal Rolex in Submariner (Sub) on the very common, this literal Although solid and reliable, not easy to corrosion, but in front of the metal will still appear very fragile, so when installing the watch, it is necessary to pay great attention to protect the literal, because once scratched, it is literally scrapped, can not be used. In the pointer and luminous, still use SuperLume ® luminous material, and it is worth noting that the previous Planet Ocean (Ocean Universe), whether genuine or high imitation clock is green, but this Planet Ocean Liquidmetal as after 2009 Of the Planet Ocean 600M's ancestor, the hourglass and other luminous luminous are the same as the blue.
Seven, strap
A new generation of Planet Ocean 600M did not do too much on the strap article, the diver to expand deduction, the correct lettering, are the high imitation Planet Ocean Liquidmetal standard configuration, for this table strap, I do not Do too much of the narrative. If there is no place, you can follow the question.
Concluding remarks
Well, these are the high imitation Planet Ocean Liquidmetal ® 1948 all the details, and believe that after reading this article, all the original Omega in 2009 after the launch of the original intention of non-back watches, and high imitation The specific details have a detailed understanding. In the future I will spend more time to spend more space. To explain through high imitation table on the authentic history, so that we truly understand the clock. Well, here again to thank everyone for watching
